Note di degustazione
Lots of ripe black cherry, plum, spice box, and licorice notes emerge from the 2017 Pinot Noir Lewis Macgregor Estate Vineyard. This meaty, medium to full-bodied effort has plenty of fruit, a balanced, nicely textured mouthfeel, and good acidity keeping everything fresh and lively. It's going to benefit from a year or so in bottle and keep for 4-6.

The 2017 Chardonnay Lewis MacGregor Estate Vineyard has a nose of toast, gunflint and roasted almonds with dried hay and leaves, white peach, citrus blossom and lime peel notes with a minerally core. Light to medium-bodied, it's laser-like, precise and mineral on entry, fleshing out to creamy, nutty fruits lifted by tangy acidity and finishing long and textured. 331 cases produced.
Aromas of praline and grilled peaches, as well as flinty, cedary and chalky notes. Fresh-oak influence, too. The palate has a very succulent, juicy and attractively creamy feel. The oak holds sway for now. Try in a year or two.
The 2017 Pinot Noir Lewis MacGregor Estate Vineyard is decidedly boisterous, with a huge core of ripe fruit and equally imposing tannins. This is an especially muscular style of Russian River Pinot. All the elements meld together effortlessly in this powerful, resonarit Pinot. Readers will have to be patient, though, as the 2017 needs time. Hard candy, blood orange, spice and star anise add an exatic flavor to this potent Pinot.
